Tempio di Antonino e Faustina

The Tempio di Antonino e Faustina is an ancient Roman temple built in 141 AD to honor Antoninus Pius and Faustina the Elder.

History
Standing proudly among its brethren in the Roman Forum, the Tempio di Antonino e Faustina was originally erected in honor of the deceased wife of Emperor Antoninus Pius, Faustina the Elder. 20 years after its inaugaration, Antoninus also passed away and the temple was rededicated to both of them. In the 11th century, the Catholic Church decided to make use of the ruins and converted them into the Church of San Lorenzo in Miranda.
